![]() One mistake and you wheel hop too much and you’re gonna be in the fence, so it was definitely edge in the Xfinity cars and I’m sure it is in the Cup cars, too. For us, with how the Xfinity cars are with the solid rear axle we wheel hop a lot, so going into turn six, turn four, turn seven, all of them that had bumps going in there were definitely treacherous. We wanted to, and we could, you’d just have to get me from jail I guess.” We’ve got to do the Stone Cold thing and I think we’re gonna do that after this, but they said it’s a felony to jump in the fountain, so we’re probably not gonna do that, I guess.

We don’t want to win it this way, but at the end of the day we had a really fast car and I think everybody knew that. Today, we definitely wish we could have run all the laps.

There’s definitely passing zones out there, but it’s such a risk versus reward as a driver. I think everybody was a little bit skeptical going in and all the drivers, but the course is such a blast to drive.
